What if the Internet suddenly vanished? Want to be a hero, like Kevin Costner, and bring the Before-Times Wordle to the people wherever you roam? Now you can carry a tiny server in your pocket and bring a web page to the people wherever you are, even if the entire Internet is down!
The ESP32-S2 Feather TFT Web Server can provide a web page to be shared over a local WiFi network or even ad hoc if no network is present. You can serve up the preserved Wordle or any other page you like.
The ESP32-S2 has built in 1MB of storage and USB disk drive access so you can just drag and drop the ‘website’ right onto the drive for serving – no SD card or special uploader tool required
Add a small battery, switch, and 3D printed case and you’re ready to save the day.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
